Masakage Mizu Nakiri (vegetable knife), 170 mm
Masakage Mizu Nakiri,
This Japanese vegetable knife has a core of non-stainless Japanese Aogami # 2 Blue carbon steel. This double-sided sharpened knife has a blue / black Kurochi pattern which gives the knife a watery sheen, hence the name Mizu which means "water" in Japanese. This knife is completely hand forged by master smith Katsushige Anryu and is unique in its kind. The blade is very thin and sharpened manually and has no thickening which makes grinding very easy. This vegetable knife is very suitable for chopping herbs and vegetables and fruit.
